To be designated as a Wilderness Area, an area had to have the following characteristics: Size - roadless areas of at least 5,000 acres of public lands or of a manageable size; Naturalness - generally appears to have been affected primarily by the forces of nature; Opportunities - provides outstanding opportunities for solitude or primitive and unconfined types of recreation. In addition, Wilderness Study Areas often have special qualities such as ecological, geological, educational, historical, scientific and scenic values. General boundary depictions only; all boundaries are subject to technical or survey adjustments as well as the provisions outlined in applicable Public Laws. |
